Line 98:
** In the same episode, {{spoiler|Ben}} is completely horrified to find he can remember what it felt like as Glory doing one of these through an army of knights with only the divine strength in her bare hands: crushing bones, ripping flesh, soaked in blood...
** In "The Wish", Buffy and the Master each fling aside several vampires as they charge across the room to fight each other
* Simon Tam did this in the ''[[Firefly (TV series)|Firefly]]'' episode "Safe". It didn't work but it was impressive. It worked well enough to make sure three townsfolk had a sore jaw.
* In the ''[[NCIS]]'' season five episode "Requiem", in what may be his personal [[Crowning Moment of Awesome]], Tony DiNozzo does a Foe-Tossing Charge with a gun, charging full-tilt at two bad guys and dropping them both with his handgun without stopping, then throwing his gun aside and diving off of a dock after the car that's just gone into the water with Gibbs and the [[Damsel in Distress]] in it.
* Played for laughs in ''[[Power Rangers Wild Force]]''. Whenever the normally shy and gentle Black Ranger gets inspired by his love interest, he turns this [[Up to Eleven]], mowing down every Mook in sight and the [[Monster of the Week]], including enemies the other Rangers were in the process of taking out - leading to some comical swing-and-a-miss shots.
Line 190:
* Norman does this in ''[[Mighty Max]]'' during one zombie episode to help Max get to Virgil.
* Aragh has quite an epic foe tossing charge in [[The Flight of Dragons]] animated film when he charges through possibly hundreds of Sandmurks to reach and then kill the queen Sandmurk.
* [[The Alcoholic|Barney]], of all people, got a good one in ''[[The Simpsons (animation)|The Simpsons]]'' episode involving soccer. Everyone who goes to see the soccer game [[Take That|gets bored because nothing is happening]], so they start fighting to get to the exit first. Someone spills Barney's beer as he's coming back from the concession stand, and Barney responds by staring at it for a moment, then going on a charge that clears out dozens of people standing in his way. After that [[Violent Glaswegian|Willie]] and [[Football Hooligans|his friends]] get involved, and it's all downhill from there.
